5477.0. "%UCX-E-SMTP_XFAIL Error With Long Dist'n List" by CTUADM::OWENS (Ken Owens @ CTU) Wed Apr 30 1997 13:53

    A customer is getting an error, %UCX-E-SMTP_XFAIL, when sending mail to
    a VMS MAIL distribution list of about 27 names.  The VMS MAIL accounts
    are forwarded to a Unix machine.  The VAX 4100 system is running VMS
    v5.5-2H4 with UCX v3.1 - ECO 3 (since upgraded to ECO 14).
     
    The mailing list seems to be placed in 1 line of about 1700 characters. 
    The customer has found a workaround by splitting the distribution list.
     
    I can't find any information on the %UCX-E-SMTP_XFAIL error.  Is it
    just a result of the "To:" list being too long and is the solution of
    splitting it up the only solution?
     
    Regards,

5477.1VMS mail problem...look for patchZUR01::DEMETRIOUFri May 02 1997 09:268
    I think this is a VMS Mail bug.....do not forget that UCX
    SMTP mail is using the calleable VMS Mail routines , so if
    these are having problems the same upplied to SMTP of UCX.
    A patch was available but I can't remember which one.
